Technical details
An out-of-bounds write vulnerability exists in RTKLIB's RTCM3 decoder, specifically within the `decode_type1033` function (and similarly in `decode_type1007` and `decode_type1008`). The root cause is a failure to clamp five 8-bit length counters (n, m, n1, n2, n3) against the fixed 64-byte destination buffer size (`MAXANT`) in the `rtcm_t` object. While the code verifies that the input frame is large enough to contain the data, it does not check if the data exceeds the destination field bounds. An attacker controlling an NTRIP or serial RTCM3 stream can provide a length of up to 255, resulting in a 191-byte overflow per field. This corrupts adjacent members of the `rtcm_t` structure, enabling arbitrary code execution or denial of service. The vulnerability is reachable via unauthenticated network or serial streams.
